Utopian Fir also includes a Super Mario Brothers underground theme tease.

Second year of coming SO close to being on this cruise/party, and missing it... Thanks to the taper/tapers!

Also, as a mention, a much more killer All In Time (with another lengthly jam) can be found at

and not only was the 'All In Time' that turned my on to Umphrey's, but contains a KILLER setlist which i recommend downloading.

This is a great set with great sound, although his voice sounds a little weak right at first, but results in different vocal emphasis on the All in Time, which i kind of dug.

Def worth the listen. Can't wait to catch the boys again.

This sounds to me like the best of the three UM Jamaica shows available and it's definitely an above average UM show. Great sound and high band energy. Highlights for me include All In Time, Utopian Fir, Cocaine, Lenny.
